Okay, so I know I said I was sick, I still am, but I forced myself to finish this chapter since it was like 90% complete. Thankfully, the ringing ears problem went away overnight so I should be able to start work on this story again. There will probably be some grammatical issues but I don't really care at the moment. I'll revisit this chapter if the issues are HUGE. Thank you for all the support this story has received, it touches my heart and makes me forget the fact I am hilariously sick.

SailorSedna052 - D3 is a loooong way away right now, but I will say the decision to write Audrey the way I am writing her was based on D3. The 'friendship' was also based on D3 and I have some exciting plans in store when we get there.

Emmettluver2010 - Thank you! This Audrey is a bit accepting of Heidi since Heidi is such a hot mess. You can expect Audrey to be a tiny bit nicer when Ben isn't around in the next few chapters.

Sorry for the awkward time skips in this chapter, I had to skip around some parts of the movie as Heidi would have no part in them. I may come back later and rework the chapter if it's too bad.

I don't own Descendants, only Heidi.


Heidi sat under a tree as she watched the tourney game from afar. She didn't know if Audrey had enjoyed watching her get fitted with a corset, the whole experience would go down as one of the worst, or was just so amused by the amount of pain she went through.

Or the fact that when they tied it a couple ribs cracked.

It could be either and Heidi could hardly care less considering Audrey had gone out of her way to do something. Part of her was suspicious while the other was simply saying that Audrey was truly a good person.

Just a person with a slightly bad moral compass...She's still got some good deep within, and all it would take was some time with someone with a good moral compass.

Aka, Heidi.

The reason she was actually watching the game was because she walked Audrey over. It was the least she could do, it had nothing to do with the fact that she was in pain and that the field was closer. Nothing.

Besides, the fittings took longer so Audrey had no time to get Heidi her key.

The game was already drawing to a close by the time Heidi tuned back in, she was daydreaming about how nice chocolate would be, and...oh. Apparently, Auradon won.

Everyone erupted into cheers as the announcer was about to say who won.

That's when Ben interrupted it all and grabbed a bullhorn, "Excuse me. Excuse me." Everyone went quiet, "Can I have your attention, please? There's something I'd like to say. Give me an "M"!"

"M!" The crowd cheered.

"Give me an "A"!"

"A!"

"Give me an "L"!"

"L!"

"What does that spell?" He asked the crowd.

Mal...What was the strength of that love spell?! Heidi thought, wincing as she stood up.

"Mal!" The crowd exclaimed, causing said girl to look at Ben in shock.

"Come on, I can't hear you!"

"MAL!" The crowd roared, louder than before with more cheers.

Ben smiled, looking at Mal who had her hand covering mouth, "I love you, Mal! Did I mention that?"

Annnd extract a princess plan is now in motion.

Audrey's eyes went wide, "Oh…" Was all she could breath out, not entirely believing what she was hearing.

Heidi made her way over as Ben started spontaneously singing about his love for Mal.

Seriously, what's with the singing? Heidi thought as she snuck behind all the other cheerleaders, "Psst! Audrey!"

Audrey looked at the other cheerleaders and they shook their heads before continuing to watch Ben. She finally turned around and raised an eyebrow, "Heidi? Why are you-"

"Nope. No questions, just come with me before you rebound with a moron." Heidi stopped her, smirking as the princess glared at the comment.

"I would not!" Audrey argued, walking over where Heidi was hiding.

"Yes you would, you're human and humans do silly things when they get dumped. The rebounds are always the worst of potential candidates." Heidi fired back, smirk widening as Audrey scoffed.

"And how would you know that?"

Heidi slinked out from her hiding spot, "I know human emotions like the back of my hand, and I'm well-versed in the knowledge of love. You may call me your personal love guru if you wish."

"I'm not going to call you that." Audrey stated, gathering her stuff, "I will be leaving, though."

"I'll take it as a win." Heidi said, guiding Audrey off of the field.


Timeskip.

For several days Heidi consoled the distraught princess, who turned out to be a very over emotional person when she wasn't in public, all the while coming up with a plan to stop Mal's plan.

At the moment, the plan was nothing more than fighting Mal for the wand if she managed to get it from Fairy Godmother. It was a horrible plan to say the least but it was a plan nonetheless. She could roll with it.

Heidi sighed as she closed her computer, setting it aside as she picked up her phone. "Who texted me?" She mumbled, turning it on and checking, "Oh, it was Carlos…"

'Hey, Fairy Godmother told someone to message you, so you should get down here.'

Heidi nodded with a yawn, she hadn't slept since arriving in Auradon, "They'll probably be in the classroom."

With that, she teleported out of the dorm room.

She landed in the hallway and stumbled slightly, Note to self, teleportation does not work well with lack of sleep.

Steadying herself against the wall, she shook her head before entering the classroom. "'Sup." She said, wiggling her fingers as she yawned. "Sorry, I haven't slept for awhile."

The other VKs all raised an eyebrow, "You got here quick." Mal said, looking at the goddess in suspicion.

"I was, *yawn* at the library reading..." Heidi informed them, she rubbed her eyes and stretched, "...Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching."

"Ooh, I love Tao Te Ching." Fairy Godmother said with a wide smile.

"Ditto. So, why am I here?" Heidi took a seat, propping her head up as she fought another yawn.

"Right. Um, as you know, uh, this Sunday is family day here at Auradon Prep. And because your parents can't be here due to, uh, distance, we've arranged for a special treat." She pulled out a remote as a projector descended from the ceiling.

Heidi sighed, Lemme guess, their parents are gonna be on the screen.

The four's parents suddenly appeared on the screen.

Yep. There they are.

Heidi closed her eyes as she began to nod off.

"I don't see anything, nor do I hear." Maleficent exclaimed, obviously having trouble with the TV on her end.

"Kids!" Fairy Godmother gestured to the screen before moving out of the way as the four VKs looked at the screen in surprise.

"Is it... is it... is.." Maleficent looked at the screen in mounting confusion.

Jafar, having had enough of it, pointed at a button, "Press enter."

"Can I please see a remote?" She yelled, looking around the room before running back to the TV, "Is this thing on? Ugh, It's broken. Ugh! I hate electronic equip... Oh!" The screen must have come on as all the villains crowded closer to it.

"Evie, It's mommy." Evie waved at her mom, "Oh! Look how beautiful. Oh, you know what they say, the poison apple doesn't fall far from the tree." Evil Queen said, prompting Maleficent to roll her eyes.

"Don't you mean the weeds?" Maleficent said, causing Evil Queen to glare at her.

Cruella practically pushed the others out of the way, "Ooh! Who's the old bat?" She was pushed back by Maleficent who shot her a glare.

"This is Fairy Godmother." Mal said, looking at the woman while her mother laughed.

"Still doing tricks with eggplants?" Maleficent asked, trying to rile the woman up.

"I turned a pumpkin into a beautiful carriage." Fairy Godmother said, her smile was replaced with a frown as Maleficent laughed even louder.

"You really couldn't give Cinderella till one A.M.? I mean, really. What, the hamsters had to be back on their little wheels?-"

"They were mice! They were not... they were mice. They were not…"

Mal cleared her throat, interrupting the two, "Thank you so much. Thank you." She said to Fairy Godmother who backed away and walked off the stage.

"They were mice." She muttered, not looking at the screen.

Mal looked back at the screen, a small smile on her face, "Hi, mom."

"Mal!" Maleficent paused, trying to think of something to say that wouldn't get Fairy Godmother on them, "I m-m-miss you." She finally said, seeming to struggle with saying the word.

"You children are never far from our thoughts." Jafar said, although he appeared to have an easier time than Maleficent when it came to kind words.

"I got it." Mal said with a nod.

"How long must mommy wait to see you?" Maleficent asked, smiling a rather fake smile that was completely forced.

"Um, there's a big coronation coming up. I think sometime probably after... that." Mal replied, sounding completely innocent as she glanced at the unsuspecting Fairy Godmother.

"When?"

"Friday, 10 A.M." Mal responded.

"You sure I can't see you before that? I don't know what I'll do If I don't get my hands on that magic wan... you... you little nugget that I love so much." Maleficent barely corrected herself, smiling widely as her daughter frowned.

"Yes, I completely understand, mother."

That's when Cruella noticed the dog in Carlos' arms, "Carlos, is that a dog?" The dog whined as she pushed the other villains out of the way, "Oh, yes, yes, baby, I do understand. It would make the perfect size for earmuffs."

Carlos frowned, directing a glare at her, "He's the perfect size for a pet." Cruella gasped in shock as Carlos continued, "This dog loves me, and I love him. And fyi, your dog is stuffed!" He exclaimed, further shocking his mother.

He had never talked back to her.

"So give it a rest!" Carlos turned away, hiding Dude from his mother.

"Oh-ho! Burn!" Jafar laughed as Cruella glared at him.

Suddenly, the screen went gray and a fizzling sound was heard before it showed someone the four had never thought they'd see so...casually.

"How the hell do you four put up with those morons?"

It was Hades.

He was sitting in his chair and appeared to be somewhat amused at the sight of the four, "Hades." Evie stated, looking like she had just seen a ghost.

He wiggled his fingers in greeting, a gesture Heidi and him shared, as he leaned forward, "Hello kiddos," He looked at Mal, "Hey Mali~" He said, smirking at her as she scoffed and looked away while the VKs looked at her, "-has anyone seen my daughter?"

Carlos immediately pointed at the passed out Heidi, "She's asleep."

Hades looked rather comical as he looked at the woman, "I have Pain and Panic go through all this hard work to interfere with the call and she doesn't even stay awake to see me?" He folded his arms and frowned, "Heidi."

Heidi didn't even budge, nope, instead her head simply smacked the table with a loud 'whack'.

"Heidi!" He tried again, only this time much louder.

Still nothing from the slumbering bluenette.

Hades 'hmphed', "Missy, if you don't want to wake up to see you're old dad I'm just going to tell everyone your full name." He said sing-songy, the threat doing absolutely nothing to the heavy sleeper.

Hades cleared his throat as he narrowed his eyes, "Can't say I didn't warn you. Heidiana Seraphina Amora!"

Heidi quickly awoke, flailing her arms as she fell out of her chair, "Dad! How could you?!" She cried out from her position on the floor.

"I warned you several times, besides it's only Fairy G and these four kids." He shrugged, not looking bothered as his daughter got up off the floor and stood in front of the four, "It always worked when you were younger."

Heidi frowned, "I may be tired as shit right now but," She paused to yawn, completely shattering the angry aura around her, "Actually...I'm really tired, continue this later?"

"As soon as you get back over here." He raised an eyebrow, "Also, go to bed."

Heidi mock saluted him, "That I will do. Bye Dad."

"See ya." He then picked up a remote and pressed a button, causing the screen to go black.

She turned around and walked out of the room, leaving four confused VKs and an amused Fairy Godmother.

"Heidi is short for Heidiana?" Carlos asked aloud, as Evie looked thoughtful.

"Heidiana Seraphina Amora sounds like a princessy name, it's too pretty." Mal stated, looking unhappy at the interaction she just witnessed.

"Very pretty." Evie said with a dreamy smile until she saw Mal staring at her, "Sorry."

The four walked out of the classroom as Evie glanced back at the projection screen, "Hey, M?" Mal stopped looking at her journal, "What do you think our parents are gonna do to us. If we don't pull this off?"

Mal shrugged as she looked at them, "I think they will be quietly disappointed in us, but ultimately... Proud of us for doing our best."

Carlos blinked, "Really?"

"No, I think we are definitely goners."

Carlos frowned as Evie nodded, "Yeah…" She mumbled, following Mal as they left to their lockers.
